I recently had some Recon Silver TK solo airs posted to me and I’m having trouble with the lockout, I’ll describe the symptoms.
The lockout engages fine and does increase the compression but there is about an inch of movement when I lean on the bars.
It was making a squirting noise on compression when the lockout was engaged but it’s not doing this now.
It worked fine before posting so I’m wondering whether some oil has migrated during transit? The problem was a lot worse before I installed the forks, left them upright overnight and then pumped them for ageeeees this morning to get the fluids moving, but I can still compress the forks about half way.
In addition, I’ve topped the air up to 110psi which is a bit more than I need as I weigh 82 pounds and am still getting a bit of sag. There is also a sharp sucking noise when the forks rebound, although I’ve never had an air spring before so this may be normal?
